Having a weird issue with my goldfish - I have 5 in a 90 gallon tank. They are all swimming and eating fine but one had a pimple sized lump under his scales. It eventually caused a scale or two to shed appeared red once the scales had gone and then had a fungus on it. I initially just thought he had injured himself.
I isolated him and treated him with Fungus Cure (nasty looking stuff) and he was fine. Bump went away and all was good.
Now it is back again and he has two and worse another goldfish has a bump now too.
There is no cauliflower like shape to it so am not suspecting Lymphacitis (I know I spelled that wrong). No anchor worm and no real color to the bump except when the scales go then it is pink/red underneath.
Would be grateful for any help - have now treated tank with General Cure (as I suspected a parasite) but still the bumps persist.
Params: Ammonia - 0, Nitrite - 0, Nitrate - 15
I couldn't get any pictures little buggers wouldn't stay still just all blurry...
